I enjoy self-destructive films, and this is one of them. Rainer Werner Fassbinder demonstrated here how interesting he was as a creator, both in directing, screenwriting, and acting. This is his showcase, where he allows criticism of society and individuals to stand out. He also does not use any pathetic tools. ()
